Ammo Dropping From NPC After Death

[DT.]

Trying to get the ammo to spawn from a dead NPC instead of a weapon in SP's "g_combat.cpp" "TossClientItems".

 

Managed to get it done by using a weapon switch, however the first NPC killed spawns 3 axis lines instead of an actual model. The second NPC spawn the ammo model however.

I believe this happens when the model has not yet been loaded. I guess it gets loaded when you pick the item up. So maybe you could preload it when an NPC that would drop it is loaded?

I added a "RegisterItem" in my weapon switch, and that seems to work although there is a very slight jitter when the ammo model spawns.

Try registering the models when you're loading the game then. Shouldn't be too difficult to find where they do that, hopefully.
